"I just took a DNA test — I'm dead," one fan wrote in response to the photos, while another called Lizzo "goals." An especially smitten fan said the singer was "Venus, Lady Godiva," and a "goddess." 

"She's hot and she wants to be hot and who cares. I bet that velvet feels great," they added.

"Thank you for being unflinchingly you at all times. Gives me hope that I can be as confident as you one day. You are the ultimate goddess!" a user wrote. 

"As a plus-sized woman myself, I just wanna say thank you," another said, calling Lizzo a "beautiful woman." 

"You represent for all of us plus-sized women in a society where people tell you you're not pretty if you're bigger," they added.

And some even thanked Lizzo for helping to change societal norms around plus-size women. 

"Thank you Lizzo for normalizing this," one fan wrote, while several others pointed out the double standard that exists for bigger women sharing sexy and revealing photos of themselves. 

"Lizzo gives me confidence. Let's change societal norms, one shape at a time," another said.  

This isn't the first time the "Truth Hurts" singer has inspired fans with her body positivity. Her Instagram posts regularly receive thousands of likes and comments, and in general, Lizzo's music is known for promoting self-love and confidence for everyone.
